The ships based on Jovian designs revealed in R1 are the Soter, Tyrannos, and the Kyrios (to an extent).

No, it will not. Silver-blue-yellow-white is standard EA color scheme and it applies to whole EA fleet. Me and Rampage are going to upgrade whole EA fleet to this standard in lightning speed. Skotas is, by the way, non-jovian ship.

Re: New Eyecandy Thread

Wait. Does that mean that the Nemesis will also receive dark grey-blue textures? I actually liked that little difference between old and new INF EA ships...

We will surely UV it and paint dedicated texture, and as EA always had dedicated and unified texture scheme, it is what you should expect. Anyway different color schemes were planned for different fleets. We will see if we implement that.

Our main goal is to get rid of all freaking tiles. It is one of the most important reasons why new color scheme was implemented. Unless we decide otherwise, Nemesis will also be blue-yellow-gray.

Re: New Eyecandy Thread

The Tereus is next for upgrade. Other EA capships ready for makeover include the Eclipse, the Asklepios, the Nemesis, and the Basileus (EA-Jovian destroyer). Currently I’m working on upgrading the meshes of the Aesacus, the Minoa, and the EA freighters (not exactly in that order). The Auriga carrier is also slowly being worked on.

In terms of the paint scheme, the Lindos was upgraded by Nyctaeus before the release of Nostos. I’ll leave total creative control to him as to which paint scheme he wants to make the EA fleet. We also discussed briefly team colors, but none of that has been implemented as of yet.

Eventually the Transjovians will have their own fleet, comprised of specialized cruisers (missile, torpedo, long range beams, strikecraft suppression, blockade runner, and field command) in battlegroups led by Kyrios and Dioscuri corvettes and supported by Tyrannos light carriers. This is in various degrees of development and we don’t plan to roll this out just yet.
